Searching for UFOs a life-long obsession
United Kingdon - Richard Cote, Lansdowne Five UFO Research Committee:
"I've basically devoted my life to finding out what I saw in 1977," he says.
"And I won't stop until I'm satisfied."
What did he see in 1977?
Cote was 17 years old. He says that one clear morning, his mother woke him up and told him to hurry outside. Hovering above the horizon, he says, was a glowing orange shape that splintered into smaller pieces, then re-assembled.
"It listened to my thoughts," says Cote.
"Because I said, 'I wonder how fast that thing can go?' And it just went -- fooosh -- straight up, so fast. And then I said, 'I hope it comes back.' And it came back."
Cote says he and his mother watched the objects for about 15 minutes.
"I knew that it was going (away)," he says.
"And I felt so close to it -- I don't know why, I can't explain why to you. It was so personal. When I got the sense that it was leaving, I felt like I'd lost my parents. I felt like I lost something I was truly attached to for a long, long time."
As he says this, Cote appears close to tears.
"It left me a thought that I'll never forget," he says.
"I'll die with that message it left in my head."
What was the message?
"I said, 'Will I ever see you again?' " says Cote.
"And it said, 'One day, we're all going to be reunited into one.' That's the thought it left. And then it tilted nicely (away), like a gentle tilt. It was so beautiful.
"Until they tell me what I saw in 1977, I won't stop (searching)," says Cote.
"This is something I'm going to die with."
